Usb 3.0 Sandisk Flash Drive at Usb 1.1 speeds

[polis_putrus]

Hello, I recently purchased a Dell Precision Tower T5810 on ebay, and when I plug in my Sandisk 256GB Usb 3.0 flash drive, it copies at 10mb/s, max 12mb/s on the front usb port, but the same T5810 pc at my school on the same front usb port, my Flash drive can copy at 100-200mb/s, is there something wrong, did the seller replace the 3.0 ports?

Specs:

Windows 10 64-bit
1 x Sata SSD 256GB <--- Windows 10 OS
1 x HDD 1TB
16GB DDR4 RAM
E5 1620 v3
Nvdia Quadro K2200 4GB

The four front-facing ports have 1 port at 3.0 speeds and the other three at 2.0 speeds. Make sure your drivers are up to date in device manager for the USB controller.

Usb ports require drivers to run at full speed?

It's definitely possible. It may or may not fix your issue. It's just the most likely cause, as I see it.
